13th century castle. Probably the most iconic most photographed in all Scotland. One of the most iconic images of Scotland, 13th century Eilean Donan is recognised all around the world. Situated on an island at the point where three great sea lochs meet, and surrounded by some majestic scenery, it is little wonder that the castle is now one of the most visited and important attractions in the Scottish highlands.
A picturesque castle that frequently appears in photographs, film and television. Since the castle's restoration in the early 20th century, a footbridge has connected the island to the mainland. The castle featured prominently in many films: Highlander(1986) as the home of Clan MacLeod, and served as the Scottish headquarters of MI6 in The World Is Not Enough in 1999. In Elizabeth: The Golden Age Eilean Donan stood in for Fotheringhay Castle in England. In the movie Made of Honor Eilean Donan can be seen as home of the groom's family.
